Let G be a locally compact group, and let WAP(G) denote the space of weakly almost periodic functions on G. We show that, if G is a [SIN]-group, but not compact, then the dual Banach algebra WAP(G)∗ does not have a normal, virtual diagonal. Consequently, whenever G is an amenable, non-compact [SIN]-group, WAP(G)∗ is an example of a Connes-amenable, dual Banach algebra without a normal, virtual ...

Correspondence: homidan@kfupm. edu.sa Department of Mathematics and Statistics, King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, Dhahran 31261, P. O. Box 119, Saudi Arabia Abstract Hankel operators and Hankel transforms are required in a number of applications. This article proves a number of theorems that efficiently and accurately approximates a function using Hankel transforms and Hankel sum....
